This package consists of Perl modules along with supporting Perl programs
|
|
that implement the semantic relatedness measures described by Leacock
|
|
Chodorow (1998), Jiang Conrath (1997), Resnik (1995), Lin (1998), Hirst St
|
|
Onge (1998), Wu Palmer (1994), the adapted gloss overlap measure by
|
|
Banerjee and Pedersen (2002), and a measure based on context vectors
|
|
by Patwardhan (2003). The details of the Vector measure are described in the
|
|
Master's thesis work done by Patwardhan (2003) at the University of Minnesota
|
|
Duluth. The Perl modules are designed as objects with methods that take as
|
|
input two word senses. The semantic relatedness of these word senses is
|
|
returned by these methods. A quantitative measure of the degree to which two
|
|
word senses are related has wide ranging applications in numerous areas, such
|
|
as word sense disambiguation, information retrieval, etc. For example, in
|
|
order to determine which sense of a given word is being used in a particular
|
|
context, the sense having the highest relatedness with its context word
|
|
senses is most likely to be the sense being used. Similarly, in information
|
|
retrieval, retrieving documents containing highly related concepts are more
|
|
likely to have higher precision and recall values.
|
|
|
|
A command line interface to these modules is also present in the package. The
|
|
simple, user-friendly interface returns the relatedness measure of two given
|
|
words.
